Reimu Hakurei

Contents

Reimu Hakurei, an ordinary human shrine maiden and the main character of the Touhou series.

In this game her bullets are quite dense and are easily chainable, which allows them to persist through enemy bullets rather easily. A well rounded character, she has good bullets, useful special moves, and a decent melee set.

Fantasy Heaven spellcard now does '99 hit 14582 damage' if you manage to pull it off. If you manage to do it on the 3rd round of a Versus or Arcade Mode match, "Mystic Oriental Love Consultation" begins playing, HNK style!

66C now has a slower startup, Reimu's kick-hop goes higher than before.

66B now has graze properties on the sliding kick.

Dimensional Rift (421B/C): Both versions now have an animation around Reimu's foot.

Youkai Buster (236B/C): Both versions are now multi-hit. Each projectile has 6 hits (12% limit, 2% per hit) for a total of 18 and 36% limit (vs. old 40). Can now be charged twice for even more amulets. Chart below is damage uncharged, charged once, and charged twice. Leveling up increases duration.

j.5C

Like 5C, but in the air. Can do 1-3 hits (but usually you will do 2-3, as also depends of distance of Reimu and the enemy when casted and you do 1 hit only when max ground distance and about midscreen up). Hard to home air-to-ground when close.

10%*x

j.2[C]

j.5[C] but downwards. Can home to opponents directly underneath Reimu.

Tosses two amulets (each similar to 5C) that go to a fixed distance forward, stop in the air, and then proceed to move while tracking the opponent. Has very good tracking properties. Shoots more amulets if charged. The B and C versions only differ in their charged properties.

B Version: Can only be charged to shoot 4 amulets.

C Version: Letting-go of charge on the charge sound shoots 4 amulets, while holding it down slightly longer releases 6.

Ascension Kick: 623B/C

Reimu spins in a fiery somersault. Has upper-body invulnerability during the first 12 frames of startup. On max level, both B and C version have full-body invulnerability.

B Version: Does not graze. Wallslams.

C Version: Rises much higher. Grazes on the way up. Does not wallslam.

Cautionary Border: 214B/C (Air-usable)

Puts up a barrier that hits the enemy two times, four at max level, before sending them flying. Each hit limits for 10%. Lasts for 3 seconds on level-0. The air versions go less far than the ground versions. You may only have one border active at a time. Only drains half an orb on block.

B Version: The border is created about half a screen in front of Reimu.

C Version: Goes twice further.

Dimensional Rift: 421B/C (Air-usable)

Reimu teleports and reappears with an attack next to the enemy. While teleporting, Reimu retains the direction she was facing, which can be used for ambiguous crossups.

Creates 3 pink amulets that fan out as they pass more distance. Can be charged to shoot up to 5 amulets (4 is also possible). Has very high damage and fast startup. Can only be high-jump-canceled very late. Whiffs point-blank.

B and C versions don't seem to differ.

Spread Amulet: 236B/C (Air-usable, Chargeable)

Fires a few large blue amulets that break apart into 6 smaller amulets each, covering a large portion of the screen. Can be charged to fire up more large amulets. The large amulets don't do too much damage, but when spread it's a good zone controller and it's easy to chain combo if the little amulets hit. Has a large blind spot.

B Version: 2-4 amulets. High-jump-cancels quickly.

C Version: 3-5 amulets. The High-jump-cancel point is later.

Sliding Ascension Kick: 623B/C

Reimu slides forward similar to her 66B move. If you keep holding down either the B or C button during the slide, Reimu will proceed to cancel it into an ascension kick. On max level, can proceed into another kick (similar to the Wind God spellcard) for a total of 3 hits if held down enough. Unsafe on block.

Creates two border barriers that surround the opponent. Those borders disappear if Reimu high-jump-cancels the move. Drains 2 orbs on block. On max level, creates four borders, making the B and C versions identical.

B Version: The borders are to the left and right of the opponent.

C Version: The borders are above and below the opponent.

Permanent Border: 214B/C

Places an amulet on the ground that attacks the enemy when it's stepped on or sightly above it. Only one amulet can be placed at a time. Has high damage and long blockstun.

B Version: Places the amulet under Reimu.

C Version: Tosses an amulet far away.

Demon Sealing Dimensional Rift: 421B/C (Air-usable)

Teleports and attacks by firing needles in a wide arc. Can be canceled right after shooting the needles.

Fires 3 large yin-yang orbs which bounce around the screen for a fairly long time. Each hits twice before disappearing. Reimu steps backwards while casting.

Spirit Sign "Fantasy Jewel": (ground/air) Costs 2 cards

Fires a fan-spray of 5 colorful shots in front of Reimu in a semi-circle shape from up to down. Does not have graze property. Good for ending an aerial corner combo.

Hisoutensoku Change: The orbs now come out of Reimu's back and wait there for a moment before moving forward. This seems to be a mostly cosmetic change, but it may invalidate some combos. Good for making opponent to attack you and be hit by the orbs, but be careful.

Dream Sign "Devil Sealing Circle": Costs 2 cards (Expansion-only)

Reimu shoots a pillar of light that surrounds her similar to Demon Binding Circle. However, it only hits once and forces limit.

Treasure Sign "Yin-Yang Jade": Costs 2 cards

Reimu casts a orange orb about the diameter of her height which hits in front of her. It lasts around 1 second.

Border "Spreading Border" (ground/air) Costs 3 cards (Expansion-only)

Causes an array of borders to spread out from Reimu to cover the entire screen. Does significantly more damage outside of the corner, when the opponent can be pushed back into the outer borders. 2-4k damage.

Divine Arts "Wind God Kick": Costs 3 cards

Reimu does four somersault in succession ending with a high kick, which makes her rise high in the air and very vulnerable on the way down. Has some invincibility frames on start so it's good for countering

Reimu shoots a pillar of light that surrounds her. Doesn't knockback on block but instead keeps target in the same place. Hitbox extends past sprite. Safe, if disadvantageous, on block. Although it has very good bullet priority, it does not graze.

Holy Relic "Yin-Yang Sanctification Jade": Costs 4 cards

Reimu casts a big blue orb in front of her that after a while accelerates across the screen until it makes contact with the opponent. On contact it will slow down and hit the enemy repeatedly until it gets past her. When the orb starts accelerating, Reimu will be free to punish the enemy along with the orb.

Divine Spirit "Fantasy Seal": (ground/air) Costs 5 cards

Reimu casts a series of colorful shots that first surround her and then chase the opponent. Deals 5 orbs of spirit damage when blocked and results in guardcrush if all shots make contact. If casted near the opponent, the shots will hit the opponent when they come out of Reimu. Does not graze. If you cast it in a corner and have a successful hit, the enemy will juggle in air so you can go in and attack for additional damage.

"Fantasy Heaven": (ground/air) Costs 5 cards

Reimu's infamous Last Word from Imperishable Night. Summons 7 yin-yang orbs around her. An orb lights up each time a successful hit is made (does not count bullets) and when all 7 are lit Reimu releases a powerful attack that covers the entire screen. The summoning of the orbs can only be done on the ground, but the actual release of the attack can be done on ground or air. The release is only when Reimu is not moving, and it's automatic. You have 15 seconds to light the orbs, and then they will disappear (they will not disappear if the enemy hits you). Easily above 6k damage if the enemy is beside you, and guard crush ensured if blocked. The attack is grazable, and won't do much damage from a distance.

Hisoutensoku Change: Causes over 14,000 damage on successful use. The attack now drains spirit on graze. Also plays a secret remix of Mystic Oriental Love Consultation in the background as the enemy gets vaporized if during the 3rd round of a match (both players with 1 win). Demonstration

Notes: Works on Alice, Marisa, Yuyuko, Patchouli, Yukari, Suika, Komachi. You can add a super on at the end (Use fantasy seal/kick super in the corner only) for a few thousand extra damage, the only hard part is being quick about the first three moves. Can work on most characters in the corner, but the other options are better for that situation.

It's important to note that stringing B projectiles into C projectiles is only possible in the corner due to the brief delay before a C-bullet begins moving towards the enemy. In the corner, there's no need for the bullet to move further because the enemy is right in front of you.

5AAA 5B 5C hjc8 j.2B j.3D j.A 5AAA 5B 623B/C - 3670 damage

Spirit Orb Usage: Variable

Note: 5B 623B/C can be replaced with the 4th hit of Dial-A if you don't have enough orbs. Alternatively, the combo can be finished by using Fantasy Seal hj8 j.6A after the 5b for 4.9k damage. Be warned, that hitting with all 5B amulets will result in exceeding limit before 623B/C

Note: Pretty hard to execute and make sure to cancel j.2b or it will limit early. It doesn't work against Suika, Yukari, Suwako, Remilia, Youmu, Sakuya, Marisa, and Reisen. Works sometimes against Meiling, Komachi, and Tenshi but it's rather random. Works on Yuyuko, Patchouli, Alice, Reimu, Sanae, Cirno, Utsuho, Aya , and Iku.
